Job description

About ALSO. We’re ALSO, an electric mobility company originally conceived as a part of Rivian. We’re a passionate team of builders, dreamers, doers and innovators, focused on creating entirely new (not to mention, innovative and delightful) vertically integrated, small EVs designed to meet the global mobility challenges of today and tomorrow. Our mission is to inspire everyone to ride ALSO—replacing many local car, truck and SUV miles with ones on vehicles that are more affordable, more enjoyable and 10-50x more efficient.

Also is looking for a Global Director of Real Estate & Workplace Services to take ownership of our rapidly evolving real estate strategy, facilities management and workplace experience across Also’s growing international portfolio. This role is ideal for a seasoned Real Estate and Workplace leader who thrives in fast-paced, high-growth companies and is excited to build our real estate strategy and operations from the ground up. The role will report into the Chief Administrative Officer and is based in Palo Alto, CA.

What You Will Do

  • Real Estate : Manage our lease agreements, acquisitions, dispositions, and relationships with landlords, brokers and other external partners.
  • Facilities & Workplace Strategy : Oversee daily operations, maintenance and vendor management, and develop workplace strategies that enhance employee experience.
  • Construction and Lab Buildouts : Lead construction and renovation projects from planning through execution, ensuring alignment with leaders from Engineering, Design, Legal and other leaders.
  • Technology Integration : Partner with Technology to deploy appropriate technology infrastructure across the real estate portfolio.
  • Budgeting & Reporting : Manage Workplace Budgets, track spending and utilization, and report key performance metrics to support strategic decisions.
  • Collaboration : Coordinate with internal stakeholders, architects, contractors and others to drive projects forward.
  • Champion a culture of continuous improvement, automation, and operational excellence within the function.

What You Will Bring

  • Extensive leadership experience (15+ years), with a strong track record of building and scaling real estate, workplace operations or facilities management in fast-paced, high-growth environments.
  • Extensive experience with lab build outs.
  • A strategic mindset with the ability to align Real Estate and Workplace initiatives with business goals and anticipate future needs as the organization scales.
  • Proven experience in managing partnerships and external service providers to ensure quality, performance, and alignment with internal priorities.
  • A deep understanding of project management, real estate metrics, space planning, construction timelines and vendor negotiation.
  • A hands-on, self-starter mentality with the ability to operate independently, identify opportunities, and drive initiatives forward with minimal direction.
  • The salary for this position ranges from $220,000 to $250,000 per year, depending on experience and qualifications.

    Why ALSO

    We’re passionate about helping the world find a better way to get there—wherever it is you’re headed.

    We’re located in the heart of Silicon Valley and have brought together a world-class team from some of the biggest brands in the technology, automotive, cycling, outdoor recreation and retail spaces. Together we’re working hands-on to imagine, design and build an entirely new solution to a global set of transportation challenges.
